Our community-based trips are a big part of our program here. We take two trips per week, usually in the afternoon. Please visit our Community-Based Field Trips page for more information and photos from our recent trips!

The Dover Alternative Program is an approved
special education program within the Dover School District. The program was
established in 1991 to provide an alternative to the traditional academic
setting for learners with challenges. Our program services students from
neighboring school districts in addition to Dover.
The faculty at The Dover Alternative Program consists of four academic
teachers, a counselor, a paraeducator, a licensed drug and alcohol counselor,
an expressive therapist intern, an administrative assistant, and the
Dean/Director. Our staff assists students with their social/emotional,
behavioral, and academic needs throughout the school day. Our teachers engage
students through innovative instruction within academic classes. Our counseling
staff provides individual/group counseling and family support. In addition, we
work closely with community based agencies to enhance student success in all
areas of functioning.
